Common Mold Problems in Older Homes

  • On floor joists above damp crawlspaces.
  • Along stone or brick foundation walls.
  • In enclosed porches and mudrooms with limited ventilation.
  • In attics affected by bathroom or kitchen moisture.
  • On stored belongings in damp basements.

Mold in Vacant or Seasonal Homes

A property left empty can develop mold from a small leak, poor ventilation or uncontrolled humidity. If you're preparing an inherited farmhouse or vacant property for sale or occupancy, consider an assessment before cleaning or moving belongings back inside.

Our Mold Remediation Process

Assess: Inspect affected areas and look for moisture sources.

Address moisture: Identify possible repairs or improvements involving leaks, drainage or ventilation.

Contain: Use appropriate barriers and HEPA-filtered air equipment where needed.

Protect nearby areas: Help limit the spread of dust and debris.

Remove and clean: Remove affected materials when necessary and clean suitable remaining surfaces.

Review results: Consider independent clearance testing when appropriate.

Rochelle Mold FAQs

Is a constant musty basement smell normal?

A persistent musty smell can indicate excess moisture or mold growth. An assessment can help identify the source.

Can a dirt-floor crawlspace be improved?

Often, yes. Depending on the property, a ground vapor barrier, drainage improvements or better moisture control may help.

We inherited a farmhouse that sat empty for a year. Where should we start?

Arrange an assessment before cleaning or moving in. Check for signs of leaks and moisture in the basement, crawlspace and attic, and document visible damage.
